Hello all,
My name is Danny, and I'm new to your forum.
I've been reading on here for a few days now, and have found a wealth of information. I have found a B7500 that I hope to make a deal on this weekend. I'd like any advice any of you can offer me to evaluate the condition of the tractor. My dad is going with me to help. He has owned several tractors, but no Kubotas. It is advertised as having 400 hours on it and has a LA272 FEL. He and I are both very mechanically inclined, so we understand the mechanics of equipment pretty well. We just need to know of any peculiarities of the machine, trouble spots, etc.
Thanks in advance!

Don't know about the B7500 but I bought a BX2200 about a year ago and had an issue with fuel leak from the top of the tank over the left fender where the fuel float is located. Bad design included a loose cap. Got a free kit from local dealer, installed it (cap with locking lugs) and no more problems. I think it was a recall. May not apply to your model but worth checking out. Hope that helps. ....

I have a Kubota B7610 Tractor and have only done regular maintenance in the 10 years I have had it. B7500 and B7610 are very much the same as to size.

Neither of these machines have draft control on the 3PH if that matters to you.

Thanks for your help. I pulled the trigger and bought the tractor on Saturday. It seems to be in really good shape, only needing some very minor work. I replaced one of the FEL hydraulic hoses and I need to straighten the tie rod a bit. I also need to figure out why the lights don't work.
Other than that, it's ready to work. I got the tractor with a King Kutter 4' box blade for $7,600. Seemed like a fair deal to me. ....
